Gary Lewis Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 The rubber etc. details are for 87/ trucks. For the '87 and later: Battery Carrier or Tray: E7TZ 10732-A r/b F4TZ 10732-B Clamp: E7TZ 10718-B (Perhaps not "rubber") Brace (Battery Tray) E7TZ 10N697-A And here's a better snag of the illustration to include the brace part #: And here's a shot of Big Blue's current battery tray on the left, and the to-be battery tray on the right. Note that the Bricknose tray will use the same bottom two bolts as the Bullnose, and will just take another hole in the fender for the brace However, it is close to the relay so that probably ought to move.

Gary, Do you want a close-up of where my stay mounts, near the relay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArdWrknTrk Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Gary, Do you want a close-up of where my stay mounts, near the relay? Sure! I think there is no problem with the wires. Look at how many I have bolted on there! Sorry for the delay. I had to run out to the paddock for the pic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reclocked my relay when I thought I was having grounding issues in the winter of 10-11. Never saw a reason to change it back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve83 Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Unless you have a junk yard near by that has availability looks like this may be a home fabrication to mount a battery on the lh fender. Or maybe mounting an existing style in reverse. Do we have the full PN for the trays and supports. 10732 and 10769? Heck it may be worth doing just because these trays are pricey. https://supermotors.net/getfile/905422/thumbnail/battrelayaux.jpg The support arm is riveted to the later tray, so it's easy to move the support to the other side. There are 2 styles: flattened tube, and flat strap: https://supermotors.net/getfile/1077418/thumbnail/battrays.jpg https://supermotors.net/getfile/1077571/thumbnail/battrayz.jpg But it's not nearly as easy to separate the lower bracket that's spot-welded to the bottom of the tray. I think you might have to reverse all its bends to make it LH; or just copy it in reverse, and fabricate your own. Either way; the base clamp is superior to the bullnose J-hook clamp. Especially if you get the long clamp bolt. https://supermotors.net/getfile/829927/thumbnail/enginebay93rhf.jpg https://supermotors.net/getfile/975094/thumbnail/34batt.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny G Posted October 20, 2019 Author Share Posted October 20, 2019 Well I couldn't find the driver side tray for 87+ but did find it for 80-86 nos. Just need to find the other parts to use with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny G Posted October 21, 2019 Author Share Posted October 21, 2019 That's the guy. Looks like I need a triangle shaped support to go under it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
